Visiting Hours

Our visiting hours are from 10 a.m. until 9p.m. daily. While it is not recommended, children are welcome to visit when accompanied by a parent or guardian. At the discretion of the nursing staff, we may limit visitors to two at a time base on your loved one's condition.

Rest is an important part of treatment and recovery. Guests are welcome, but we ask that you respect the needs of everyone. In most cases, we ask that children not visit because they may be contagious with diseases that could be given to your loved one. Families may visit the ICU at the discretion of the nurse. There may be instances where guests will be asked to leave the room to allow implementation of patient care.

Infection Control

Most germs are spread by direct contact. Caregivers and visitors should wear gloves if there is any chance they may be touching body substances. Vigorously wash hands for 15-20 seconds after providing care and upon entering and leaving the room.

Also, be sure to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Don't forget to wash your hands! In some cases, visitors and hospital staff will need to wear masks, gowns and gloves in your room. If this special precaution is needed, a sign will be placed on the door. Sometimes a private room is needed to stop the spread of certain germs.

During your stay, you will need only a few personal item. We strongly suggest that you leave all valuables at home, such as jewelry, money and credit cards. If this is not possible, you may deposit such items in the hospital safe. Under no circumstances will the hospital be responsible for money or valuables kept in your room.

For reasons of electrical safety, personal electrical appliances (shavers, hairdryers, radios, etc.) must be reported and checked for safety by the Electrical Engineering Department prior to use. Please label these items with your name and address.

Mail and flowers will be delivered to your room. Mail received after discharge will be returned to sender. The ICU does not allow arrangements of flowers. Do not ask family members to bring food unless your physician approves.

Family Visits

Dealing with an illness and being away from home can be emotionally demanding. Whether your loved one can respond to you or not, you can help keep their spirits up by simply being there. We encourage family visits as often as possible in accordance with our visitation policy.

Share family news. Discuss events at home. Allow your family member to give input, when possible, on some decisions at home.

Frequent hugs, kisses, caresses or hand holding are essential to the human spirit; however, keep isolation precautions in mind. You can bring clothing from home. You will be amazed at how much better you feel wearing personal items. To determine what type of clothing items to bring, ask your nurse. Bring in and display family pictures and letters in easily viewed locations. Surround loved ones with any personal items that have special meaning, like books, newspapers and games they enjoy.
